Venture to the West of Ireland for a unique experience during one of our weekend sojourns - ideal for those seeking an escape and an emergence from COVID-19 in a creative, mindful, and invigorating environment.

These weekend adventures will offer the participant the unique opportunity to stay in a unique setting, with insight into local attractions which involve hiking, writing or hill walking.
The weekend includes two residential nights (ensuite bedrooms) and three days, complete with resident experts, all meals prepared by our in-house chef from locally sourced producers. Join us for a completely new and unique experience.
